hi. I am new here. what are the best tires for c300 2010? my dunlop are so loud we cannot stand to drive..there are so many mixed reviews for these Contipro Contacts and Michelin's. I did see someone say Goodrich Prism or something but even tire racks reviews give the tread a 6.
thanks MB fam.

Very subjective question, but you can look at the ratings on TireRack.com to get a relative idea of different types and brands. The reviews on TireRack are all over the map, but sometimes you can pick out good or bad points mentioned by more than one reviewer.

I just put a set of Pirelli P7 Centurato AS+ on my car and they are super comfortable and very quiet ... specific qualities that my wife wanted and that were shown in the ratings.

I’ve come across continental tires as the best for me. Come with 40K warranty and road side assistance.

Actually it is a subjective question, because it really depends on what type of features you're looking for.
Someone would argue for one tire, and another would argue for another...

For me, I was looking for the best performance/price on dry road, and got myself a set of Firestone Firehawk Indy 500.
I installed them when the car had 75K miles, and now it has almost 120k miles and still good.
They give great grip on dry road and are very quiet and comfortable.
Even when I had to hard break in emergency situations, I always felt the car stuck on the tarmac and never heard the tires squeak.

For my 2010 w204 4Matic, those are the best tires ever, considering my budget. But when it's raining, I drive grandpa style with them, because they are not made for rainy conditions.
The advice that was given to you to check the reviews and pick which pros and cons are good for you, is the only thing you can really do.

Or you need to be more specific on what would make your choice? Price, durability, grip, wet or summer...etc

You will need to give more info on what you’re trying to accomplish.

Is this a daily driver?
Is it driven year round?
What are your seasons like?
Are you going to drive the car on a track or road course?
What rims do you have? What size?
And, the biggest question of all, what’s your budget?

No reason for anyone to make any recommendations until we get these questions answered.

Seriously Google it. There's 1,000+ threads with this same question.

Yes. The car is driven daily. I am in Maryland so of course we will have snow and ice. The rims are 17'.My budget is no more than 130 per tire..I am replacing the rear tires first.
